“RIVALS THE HEAVYWEIGHTS” – VINTAGE GUITAR MAGAZINE

“Though his music shares a genre populated by last name folk-rock icons such as Dylan and Petty, Lamb’s music vibrates with a level of originality and personal authenticity that rivals the heavyweights.”

“AN EASY TOP TEN!” – ABSOLUTE POWERPOP

“Damned if he didn’t come up with another roots-pop gem. There’s plenty to like here. Lamb’s gift for melody and angelic voice combine for great rootsy-pop. An easy top ten!”

“THIS ALBUM WILL NOT LET YOU DOWN” – MICHAEL MORGAN

“I highly recommend this album for those obsessed with Tom Petty, Bob Dylan, the Jayhawks, Wilco and Neil Young. This album will not let you down.”

ABOUT SHANE

He’s being compared to some of the giants of his genre, like Bob Dylan and Neil Young. But singer/songwriter Shane Lamb also brings his own indelible, introspective rawness to the table and willingly takes the listener down his surprisingly sunny road, yet pointing out his weaknesses and scars along the way with unashamed honesty.
